Lightbulb Show us under your hood!

There was recently a general thread of 928 pix that keeps coming back. I wanted to know if anyone would like to post pix of just your engine bays. You could post clean or dirty, surprising things done by the PO, or just a peak at the heart of the shark.

I got the idea from Afshin's thread about cleaning his (really nice work Afshin) and I wanted to see some more. Please include the year and upgrades to the engine so everyone knows what they're looking at.

I'm not posting mine yet because it's not ready for prime time, but I'd love to see what's out there.

Either my Shark is extremely shy or her injectors were sent out to be cleaned

Besides she likes to show off her fender covers

Hey Bill B, lets see if we can get that leaky injector problem out of the way

Mine still has the original finish - even though it is getting a bit brittle...

I recently added some lettering to the intake manifold. The lettering is also available for the valve/cam covers.

I have this available in the color combo shown, in all black, or chrome. Custom colors can be special ordered.
